15、refereeing (裁判) decisions that denied victory to their team. A researcher was appointed to study the performance of some top referees.The researcher organized an experimental tournament (锦标赛) involving four youth teams. Each match lasted an hour, divided into three periods of 20 minutes during which
16、 different referees were in charge.Observers noted down the referees errors, of which there were 61 over the tournament. Converted to a standard match of 90 minutes, each referee made almost 23 mistakes, a remarkably high number.The researcher then studied the videotapes to analyze the matches in de
17、tail. Surprisingly, he found that errors were more likely when the referees were close to the incident. When the officials got it right, they were, on average, 17 meters away from the action. The average distance in the case of errors was 12 meters. The research shows the optimum (最佳的) distance is a
18、bout 20 meters.There also seemed to be an optimum speed. Correct decisions came when the referees were moving at a speed of about 2 meters per second. The average speed for errors was 4 meters per second.If FIFA, footballs international ruling body, wants to improve the standard of refereeing at the
19、 next World Cup, it should encourage referees to keep their eyes on the action from a distance, rather than rushing to keep up with the ball, the researcher argues.He also says that FIFAs insistence that referees should retire at age 45 may be misguided. If keeping up with the action is not so impor
20、tant, their physical condition is less critical.31 The experiment conducted by the researcher was meant to_.(A)review the decisions of referees at the 1998 World Cup(B) analyze the causes of errors made by football referees(C) set a standard for football refereeing(D)reexamine the rules for football
21、 refereeing32 The number of refereeing errors in the experimental matches was_.(A)slightly above average(B) higher than in the 1998 World Cup(C) quite unexpected(D)as high as in a standard match33 The findings of the experiment show that_.(A)errors are more likely when a referee keeps close to the b
22、all(B) the farther the referee is from the incident, the fewer the errors(C) the more slowly the referee runs, the more likely will errors occur(D)errors are less likely when a referee stays in one spot34 The word “officials“ (Line 2, Para.4) most probably refers to_.(A)the researchers involved in t
23、he experiment(B) the inspectors of the football tournament(C) the referees of the football tournament(D)the observers at the site of the experiment35 What is one of the possible conclusions of the experiment?(A)The ideal retirement age for an experienced football referee is 45.(B) Age should not be
24、the chief consideration in choosing a football referee.(C) A football referee should be as young and energetic as possible.(D)An experienced football referee can do well even when in poor physical condition.35 While still in its early stages, welfare reform has already been judged a great success in
25、 many states at least in getting people off welfare. Its estimated that more than 2 million people have left the rolls since 1994.In the past four years, welfare rolls in Athens Country have been cut in half. But 70 percent of the people who left in the past tow years took jobs that paid less than $
26、6 an hour. The result: The Athens County poverty rate still remains at more than 30 percent twice the national average.For advocates (代言人 ) for the poor, thats an indication much more needs to be done.“More people are getting jobs, but its not making their lives any better,“ says Kathy Lairn, a poli
27、cy analyst at the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities in Washington.A center analysis of US Census data nationwide found that between 1995 and 1996, a greater percentage of single, female-headed households were earning money on their own, but that average income for these households actually went
28、 down.But for many, the fact that poor people are able to support themselves almost as well without government aid as they did with it is in itself a huge victory.“Welfare was a poison. It was a toxin (毒素) that was poisoning the family,“ says Robert Rector, a welfare-reform policy analyst. “The refo
29、rm in changing the moral climate in low-income communities. Its beginning to rebuild the work ethic (道德观) , which is much more important.“Mr. Rector and others argued that once “the habit of dependency is cracked,“ then the country can make other policy changes aimed at improving living standards.36
30、 From the passage, it can be seen that the author_.(A)believes the reform has reduced the governments burden(B) insists that welfare reform is doing little good for the poor(C) is overenthusiastic about the success of welfare reform(D)considers welfare reform to be fundamentally successful37 Why are
31、nt people enjoying better lives when they have jobs?(A)Because many families are divorced.(B) Because government aid is now rare.(C) Because their wages are low.(D)Because the cost of living is rising.38 What is worth noting from the example of Athens County is that_.(A)greater efforts should be mad
32、e to improve peoples living standards(B) 70 percent of the people there have been employed for two years(C) 50 percent of the population no longer relies on welfare(D)the living standards of most people are going down39 From the passage we know that welfare reform aims at_.(A)saving welfare funds(B)

34、nt aid40 Americans are pound of their variety and individuality, yet they love and respect few things more than a uniform, whether it is the uniform of an elevator operator or the uniform of a five-star general. Why are uniforms so popular in the United States?Among the arguments for uniforms, one o
35、f the first is that in the eyes of most people they look more professional than civilian (百姓的) clothes. People have become conditioned to expect superior quality from a man who wears a uniform, the television repairman who wears uniform tends to inspire more trust than one who appears in civilian cl
36、othes. Faith in the skill of a garage mechanic is increased by a uniform. What easier way is there for a nurse, a policeman, a barber, or a waiter to lose professional identity (身份) than to step out of uniform?Uniforms also have many practical benefits. They save on other clothes. They save on laund
37、ry bills. They are tax-deductible (可减税的). They are often more comfortable and more durable than civilian clothes.Primary among the arguments against uniforms is their lack of variety and the consequent loss of individuality experienced by people who must wear them. Though there are many types of uni
38、forms, the wearer of any particular type is generally stuck with it, without change, until retirement. When people look alike, they tend to think, speak, and act similarly, on the job at least.Uniforms also give rise to some practical problems. Though they are long-lasting, often their initial expen
39、se is greater than the cost of civilian clothes. Some uniforms are also expensive to maintain, requiring professional dry cleaning rather than the home laundering possible with many types of civilian clothes.41 It is surprising that Americans who worship variety and individuality_.(A)still judge a m
40、an by his clothes(B) hold the uniform in such high regard(C) enjoy having a professional identity(D)will respect an elevator operator as much as a general in uniform42 People are accustomed to think that a man in uniform_.(A)suggests quality work(B) discards his social identity(C) appears to be more
41、 practical(D)looks superior to a person in civilian clothes43 The chief function of a uniform is to_.(A)provide practical benefits to the wearer(B) make the wearer catch the pubic eye(C) inspire the wearers confidence in himself(D)provide the wearer with a professional identity44 According to the pa
42、ssage, people wearing uniforms_.(A)are usually helpful(B) have little or no individual freedom(C) tend to lose their individuality(D)enjoy greater popularity 45 The best title for this passage would be_.(A)Uniforms and Society(B) The Importance of Wearing a Uniform(C) Practical Benefits of Wearing a
43、 Uniform(D)Advantages and Disadvantages of Uniforms45 Since we are social beings, the quality of our lives depends in large measure on our interpersonal relationships. One strength of the human condition is our tendency to give and receive support from one another under stressful circumstances. Soci
44、al support consists of the exchange of resources among people based on their interpersonal ties. Those of us with strong support systems appear better able to cope with major life changes and daily hassles (困难) . People with strong social ties live longer and have better health than those without su
45、ch ties. Studies over a range of illnesses, from depression to heart disease, reveal that the presence of social support helps people fend off (挡开) illness, and the absence of such support makes poor health more likely.Social support cushions stress in a number of ways. First, friends, relatives, an
46、d co-workers may let us know that they value us. Our self-respect is strengthened when we feel accepted by others despite our faults and difficulties. Second, other people often provide us with informational support. They help us to define and understand our problems and find solutions to them. Thir
47、d, we typically find social companionship supportive. Engaging in leisure-time activities with others helps us to meet our social needs while at the same time distracting (转移注意力) us from our worries and troubles. Finally, other people may give us instrumental support financial aid, material resource
48、s, and needed services that reduces stress by helping us resolve and cope with our problems.46 Interpersonal relationships are important because _.(A)they are indispensable to peoples social well-being(B) they awaken peoples desire to exchange resources(C) they help people to cope with life in the information era(D)they can cure a range of illnesses such as heart disease, etc.47 Research shows that peoples physical and mental health_.(A)relies on the social welfare systems which support them(B) has much to do with the amount of support they get from others(C) depends on their ability to dea
